Safari Went as Planned in Zambia
5/5

After having a very disorganized experience in Tanzania via another tour operator, we were happy that our accommodation/reservations looked as pictured and were on the dates we had asked for. The guide and wait staff were great. My food request for not eating fish was upheld and luckily there was only one snack that had mayonnaise, so I could eat almost all the food. The view of the Luangwa River at Thornicroft was amazing. We saw leopards, lions, and several other types of wildlife.

Pleasure to work with
5/5

Thank you Ntanda Ventures. Especially Sonja, who planned our Zambia itinerary so perfectly. She completely understood our requirements and we had one of the most memorable trips. From the very start, she was extremely prompt, accommodating, and ready to sort out any queries related to the bookings. She was easily accessible on call even during the trip. Needless to say, Ntanda and Sonja are now our go-to people for future travels.

Fantastically planned with an eye on details
5/5

Sonja from Ntanda was a pleasure to work with. She understood our budget and what we wanted and planned our travel, safari camps, transport, everything so beautifully. The detailed itinerary was so well laid out. And she was available to us at all times and even during our travel to answer any concerns. We had a delightful experience in Zambia and would highly recommend them for travels in that region. With our love for Africa, we will definitely work with Sonja again.

Tailored excellence
5/5

Ntanda Ventures were a delight to work with every step of the way. With a large group and complex itinerary, Sonja was in complete control of our booking at all times. With her expertise and good connections, she provided fantastic advice about lodging and transport and made bookings at very favourable rates. Also, when we were travelling Sonja and Kerry were always available to help sort out any hiccup that arose along the way (and when travelling in Zambia, hiccups arise). I cannot recommend Ntanda Ventures enough.

Outstanding Travel Operator: Ntanda Ventures
5/5

Anybody is planning a trip to Zambia/Zibabwe/Botswana....The travel partner / tour operator you should consider is none other than Ntanda Ventures Ltd. We got a very neatly planned custom itinarary according to my budget from Ntanda, thanks to Sonja, her boss and the team helped her to achieve the same. Our trip included a number of transports, by land and air. We were so happy the way Sonja arranged the whole trip.

Helpful, personal, attentive and available
5/5

We're a group of five friends who used Ntanda to organise a 1-week "custom made" safari itinerary in Zambia, as part of a Zimbabwe-Zambia-Malawi tour. Throughout the process, the representative at Ntanda has been incredibly helpful and innovative. She has paid attention to our requirements and made plans within our budget limitations, to make sure we'd get as much value for money as possible. When we've had questions they have responded quickly and we've always felt very confident that things will get sorted out.

As we embarked on our safari, most things went according to plan. There was a minor misunderstanding regarding pickup at one place, but we managed to get hold of Ntanda who immediately dealt with the situation. Our trip included a number of transports, by land and air, and they have all been very punctual, professional, and in comfortable and clean vehicles. The lodges/camps Ntanda picked for us were wonderful and helped making this a highly memorable journey.

We are more than happy to recommend to anyone who wishes to experience Zambia.

Sonja and no one else for a Zambian trip
5/5

Sonja is already super available throughout the creation of the itinerary. She is attentive to the wishes and type of travelers (we were traveling with a baby and she planned frequent breaks on our route)
She was available during the trip as well to make last minute changes. She even helped us with administrative procedures that we had to undertake following an error on our part. A real rare pearl with foolproof effectiveness!!! Thank you from the heart !!!

Sonja from Ntanda Ventures went a hundred extra miles in designing a unique stay for us in South Luangwa. Booking with her was great: reacting in no time, answering all our questions, thinking ahead, making great suggestions. Thank you so much!

Excellent personalised service resulting in an wonderful trip to Zambia.
5/5

I was searching for an add on to a pre planned bush camping trip in Botswana and sent out numerous requests through Safari Bookings with a wide open request to travel onto a neighbouring country with just my finish date in Botswana , the date of my flight out to France from SA and a limited budget. Travelling as a solo female this kind of request proves difficult to fulfil and Sonja from Ntanda was the only person to respond positively. She suggested Zambia and worked along with my personal preferences and interests to plan a wonderful itinerary for me. I found her friendly and obviously dedicated to providing the best service possible not forgetting that she had to deal with the daily power outage disrupting her working schedule! From Victoria Falls where my Botswana trip ended I was picked up by a driver and taken over the border into Livingstone where I spent 4 night at Victoria Falls Waterfront in fixed tent accommodation. This was a great value for money stay with plenty of trip and adventure options. My days were pre booked by Sonja and I thoroughly enjoyed all the experiences. In the evening I sat eating dinner and watching the magnificent sunsets over the great Zambezi River. It is a very pleasant vibrant setting enjoyed both by locals and tourists. From Livingstone I flew to Mfuwe and onto another 4 night stay at Thornicroft Lodge at the edge of South Luangwa Park. Another riverside lodge with hippos, elephants and crocodiles to watch. Again Sonja had planned my days and everything went smoothly and exceeded all expectations. The game drives morning and night with just me and the driver/guide were always an adventure and I thoroughly enjoyed the visits to 3 local community projects. Painting my own cushion cover @ Tribal Arts was a highlight and a wonderful souvenir of the trip. Highly recommend visiting Zambia and asking for Sonja @ Ntanda Adventures to plan it. She did an AMAZING job. Thank you.
